The Middle East crisis Israel-Iran

Iran: Will give "appropriate" response to Israel's attack

Iran will give an "appropriate" response to Israel's attack on the country, says Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, according to Reuters.

In the past, the message from the country has been somewhat less concrete: "Iran has the right to defend itself", it was said then.

US President Joe Biden said yesterday that he hoped the latest Israeli airstrike on Iran could "mark the end" of attacks between the two countries.

According to Pezeshkian, Iran is "not looking for a war" with Israel.

Netanyahu: "We achieved all goals with the attack"

Israel's attack on Iran overnight Saturday was "powerful" and "achieved all objectives", according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. On Sunday, he commented on the attacks in a speech for the first time.

- We promised that we would respond to the Iranian attack and on Saturday we struck, he says according to the AFP news agency.

Israel's attack, which was a response to Iran's attack on October 1, targeted military targets. The prime minister says the attacks have impaired Iran's ability to develop robots.

The country's defense minister, Yoav Gallant, states that Iran no longer has use of Hamas and Hezbollah due to the recent Israeli attacks against the groups.

The Ayatollah's answer: "Neither exaggerate nor trivialize"

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says Iran must show its strength to Israel and that officials will decide how best to do this. This is reported by AP with reference to the state news agency IRNA.

- The evil actions of the Israeli regime two nights ago should neither be exaggerated nor trivialized. The Israeli regime's misjudgments must be stopped, Ali Khamenei said in the statement.

More than 100 Israeli aircraft and drones are said to have been used in the attack, which was carried out in three waves against weapons factories in Iran, the Israeli Defense Forces IDF has previously stated.
